It was a good lesson. There are no metric nuts are bolts and losing the 10mm socket won't inconvenience anyone. Dad, and eventually son, will lose an occasional 1/2" or 9/16" socket. Between those two size sockets and wrenches, and an occasionally 5/8" socket and wrench, you can tear down that engine and rebuild it.

ReplyDeleteMatthew, I guess I'm too slow for comments today. Huh?

ReplyDeleteHi, Ralph, Hi, Ed. It's been too long.
And the maps were a couple of years behind.
